lyrics

A song bird flew into our window today
And broke its neck and died
And as my wife buried this beautiful little bird with a yellow belly
I couldn’t help but realize that as it flew into our window
I had been singing my wife a song
And asking her if it was good enough

(You know what to do Kevin..”)

I always lean on you like a junky on a lamppost in the rain
And you never judge me, no
They’re throwing vegetables again at all my masterpieces man
But that never budged me
If I was Marvin Gaye I’d sing like ladadada
But I smoke too much for that anyway
If I was Mr. Gates I’d buy a plane to fly away
But I’m much too broke for that

So I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh, like a fool, uh-huh
I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh like a fool, uh-huh

When they don’t throw confetti
And they boo at you like ghost, not ready
My antennas still pointed at you
Still shoot three pointer like ooh darling
I’m hardly Jordan but I’m in the paint
Get the party started when they said I can’t
And you’re all invited, held the lightning
Songbird fell from the sky

So I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh, like a fool, uh-huh
I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh like a fool, uh-huh

Caught up again he..
Penny for thoughts knock knock
Buncha hollow heads there aren’t any
Caught up in Xanny caught up in Henny
Caught up in what your friends think
The real epidemic is a loss of identity
Standing on the side frostbitten
Like a lost mitten still use my finger for flipping you off
If you blocking the kids with your rotten addiction
Pop culture fishbowl claustrophobically swimming
This is open water open your heart it’s a start
To the son and daughters, don’t bartyr for the sparks
Or be a martyr for the charts
Intelligence is dumbfounded when you’re really grounded in the art

So I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh like a fool, uh-huh
I’ll just sit here awhile
With wrinkles from smiling like a fool, uh-huh like a fool, uh-huh
